Christie®,
a leader in creating and sharing the world’s best visual and audio experiences,
is delivering stunning presentations of Academy Award-winning director Ang
Lee’s new film Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime
Walk using customized dual-head Christie Mirage 4KLH RGB laser projection
systems during the movie’s premiere in Beijing and Shanghai.

Screened in 4K resolution, stereo 3D, and at 120 frames a
second (fps), the film made its debut at Beijing Bona Youtang International
Cineplex on November 6, and will premiere at the Shanghai Film Art Center
on November 8. The Beijing premiere was attended by director Ang Lee and cast
members Joe Alwyn and Mason Lee. The trio will subsequently travel to Shanghai
for the final leg of the film’s Asian premiere, which kicked off in Taipei last
week.

“We are very proud to be one of the few cinemas around the
world to be equipped with the Christie Mirage 4KLH RGB laser projection system
– the only projector that is capable of screening Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk in 4K, 3D, and 120fps that’s
faithful to director Ang Lee’s vision. This is the ultimate presentation of the
movie with bright and highly realistic visuals, and we are excited to offer the
most spectacular cinematic experience to our patrons,” said Dong Yu, President,
Bona Film Group.

Zhonglun Ren, President, Shanghai Film Group, commented,
“Having worked closely with Christie to unveil the world’s first commercial RGB
laser projection system in 2014, we are honored and thrilled to be among a select few premium venues worldwide to once again
push the technological boundaries of movie presentations by equipping our
flagship auditorium with the dual-head Christie Mirage 4KLH RGB laser
projection system for screenings director Lee’s technologically groundbreaking
film in 4K, 3D, and 120fps. We are proud to play a part in making cinema
history with this exceptional movie presentation that no other filmmaker has
attempted.”

The Christie Mirage 4KLH system has been specially modified
to screen Lee’s ultimate rendition of his story-telling vision. Featuring Christie
TruLife™ electronics platform with an industry-leading
video-processing pipeline of up to 1.2 Gigapixels per second, and anchored by
the Christie Freedom® laser illumination system, the Mirage 4KLH can produce up
to 60,000 lumens per head, with potentially up to 120,000 lumens when two
projection heads and two sets of RGB laser light sources are used (i.e., in a
dual 6-Primary configuration).

The dual Mirage RGB laser projection systems fitted at Beijing
Bona Youtang International Cineplex and Shanghai Film Art Center are configured
to produce a brightness of 28 foot-lamberts for the finest 3D-viewing
experience unmatched by any other cinema in China. In the United States, the dual Christie Mirage
projectors delivered the east-coast premiere at the New York Film Festival and
are set to repeat this momentous showing for west-coast audiences at the ArcLight
Cinemas Cinerama Dome on November 10.

“We’re
delighted that Bona Film Group and Shanghai Film Group have installed our
dual-head Mirage 4KLH system to bring director Ang Lee’s definitive version of Billy Lynn’s
Long Halftime Walk – in 4K, 3D, and 120fps with a
brightness of 28 foot-lamberts – to audiences in Beijing and Shanghai,” said Jason Pei,
Deputy General Manager, Christie China. “The Christie Mirage system is the most
advanced projection system available, and the only system that can screen this
landmark film in the way that the Director intended it to be seen. We are
thankful to Bona Film Group
and Shanghai Film Group for all their hard work to make the screening of this
film in 4K, 3D, and 120 fps a reality.
Without their full support and cooperation, this would not have been possible.”

Lin Yu, Vice
President, Christie Asia Pacific, added, “Christie has set a new milestone in
cinema projection with the presentation of Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk in the unprecedented format of 4K,
3D, and 120 fps with our Mirage system. From the premiere screenings in New York,
Taipei, and now in Beijing and Shanghai, Christie is the only projector
manufacturer in the world that is able to display Lee’s vision as intended, and
this clearly demonstrates the superiority of our projection technologies.”

Lee, who won two directing Oscars for Brokeback Mountain and Life of Pi, is known for both his
dramatic storytelling and adoption of new technologies. For Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk, which
tells the story of a soldier who fought in the Iraq war, Lee decided to push
the technological boundaries in order to give the film an “immersive” and “realistic”
experience of the reality and emotional journey of soldiers. It is the first ever
feature film to be shot in such a high frame rate – over twice the previous
record (Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit: An
Unexpected Journey, shot at 48 fps) and five times the standard speed of 24
fps.
